If you run a hair dressing salon then you might have more customers than you can handle and might be taking on new stylists to cope with the demand. If business is a little bit quieter in your salon, then perhaps you need to think about how new salon furniture could help you. Here's what you need to know:
1. Your reception furniture is often the first impression your customers get of your salon. What does your reception area say? Is it old and worn out? Is it dull and uncomfortable? Or is it new colourful and inviting? What difference would a new sofa make to your waiting customers?
2. Your reception desk is also important to customers. Have your staff got all they need to hand when they make an appointment in person on over the phone? What additional hair products could you sell to your customers as they pay for their haircut?
3. You'll want to make sure that you have enough storage areas for everything you and your staff need. There's no need for additional gowns or scissors or hairdryers to be lying around, and getting in the way. A tidy salon will look efficient and more professional too.
4. The hairdressing chairs you choose for your salon will also play a part in creating the right environment for your customers. Are you going for a clean modern minimalistic look for younger customers, or something much more traditional for your clientele?
5. The wash area might be separate from the main cutting and styling areas in your salon, so you might need additional chairs and units for your customers and staff. What does your current wash area furniture say about your salon, staff and customers?
6. Why not have hairdressing trolleys for each member of staff, so that they can keep everything they need tidy, and easily accessible? This means that your staff can work at different stations, and have all their scissors, brushes and other hairdressing items where they need them.
7. What do your styling units say about your salon? Are they clean and tidy? Have they seen better days? Do they look old fashioned? Do they still meet the needs of your customers and staff? Why not consider replacing them with something more stylish and more practical?
8. You might want to consider using hood dryers if you're not using them already. This will mean that your staff are able to spend their time more efficiently and see more clients, and so will be more effective.
9. You might want to have a couch for other beauty treatments. Why not choose one that is adjustable and versatile, so that your beauticians find it easier to use, and so can make sure that their treatments are fully appreciated.
10. Why not consider having a nail desk in your salon, and offering nail services? Desks are available with the right sort of lighting, and storage, so that everything your nail technician needs is close to hand.
Now you know more about how you can improve the look of your salon, perhaps now is the time to buy new hairdressing equipment.
